• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

My Favorite Song!!!

I've always loved that song, and I need to tell you a little story about that song...

Hubby and I had a baby sitter for the night. We didn't have much money back then so we decided to down a road and stop at the first bar we saw and have a beer. A deserted place called 'The D@mn Ice House' was the first bar on the road so we went in.

The place was not empty, the bikes were parked around back and it was full of hard core bikers. We're talking a lady dressed in leather with a vest, hot pants and thigh high stilettos. We sat at the bar, they sat at the tables. After a bit, they came up and talked with us, and we started making new friends. It was fun!

A guy gave me some quarters to put in the Juke box and pick some tunes. Well, Proud Mary was on the list, I picked it, and it came up eventually...

It wasn't Tina singing, but the Credence Clearwater rendition....

The bar went quite. The Juke plug was pulled and they ignored us thereafter. We went home soon after at the request of the barkeep.

My favorite version of Tina's 'Proud Mary' is the '82 version. Ike wasn't looking over her shoulder as she sang....
